Lingering Breath to Linnorm Vengeance…

This post already appeared for patrons only on my Patreon page. If you wish to see stuff in advance and have access to other rewards, please consider donating!


Lingering Breath (Mythic)

Your breath weapon is like a clinging elemental coating that continues to damage your victim.

Prerequisite: Lingering Breath.

Benefits: You add your mythic tier to your breath weapon’s lingering damage, and to the number of rounds the effect lasts for.


Linnorm Hunter Coordination (Combat, Mythic, Teamwork, Style)

You and your animal companion attack as one.

Prerequisite: Linnorm Hunter Coordination.

Benefit: When you benefit from Linnorm Hunter Coordination, you may make a full attack action against a target and apply the extra damage to all your attacks. If your ally has no natural attacks, you can apply extra damage to your attacks equal to the damage of one of your ally’s weapon attacks.


Linnorm Hunter Retreat (Combat, Mythic, Teamwork, Style)

You can move very fast to come to help your animal companion, or retreat thanks to it covering you.

Prerequisite: Linnorm Hunter Retreat.

Benefit: When an ally with the Linnorm Hunter Retreat feat uses Linnorm Hunter Style and hits a target with a melee attack, you can move up to your speed as an immediate action without provoking an attack of opportunity from that target.


Linnorm Hunter Style (Combat, Mythic, Teamwork, Style)

You can reach to help your animal companion attacking from afar.

Prerequisite: Linnorm Hunter Style.

Benefit: You can use the benefits from Linnorm Hunter Style if the target hit by your ally is within 30 feet from you, even if you don’t threaten it.


Linnorm Style (Combat, Mythic, Style)

You attack with your mind and your body at the same time.

Prerequisite: Linnorm Style.

Benefit: You don’t take a penalty on your AC against melee attacks when using Linnorm Style. You add both your Strength/Dexterity bonus and your Wisdom bonus to the damage of your unarmed strikes when using Linnorm Style.


Linnorm Vengeance (Combat, Mythic, Style)

You can transform a hit taken into an attack and barely take damage from it.

Prerequisite: Linnorm Vengeance.

Benefits: When you use Linnorm Vengeance, you can expend one use of mythic power to take the minimum amount of damage from every enemy attack in a round. If you allow yourself to be hit by an attack, you don’t suffer damage from that attack. Lastly, if you perform a retaliatory attack and drop unconscious or die, you are not stunned when restored to consciousness or to life.

New Mythic Draconic Feats, Part 2

Second installment of the mini-series!

This post already appeared for patrons only on my Patreon page. If you wish to see stuff in advance and have access to other rewards, please consider donating!


Dragonslayer (Combat, Mythic)

It’s not you against the dragon. It’s the dragon against you.

Prerequisite: Dragonslayer.

Benefits: In addition to inhibiting your foe’s breath weapon, you can nullify its frightful presence for the same duration if your opponent possesses this ability. If your opponent has the draconic bloodline, you instead prevent it from using its bloodline powers and spells for the same duration.


Dragon-Touched (Mythic, Story)

Your grudge is against all dragons, not just one.

Prerequisite: Dragon-Touched.

Benefits: The bonuses from the Dragon-Touched feat apply against all dragons of the same type as the one you selected (all metallic dragons, all chromatic dragons, and so on). The completion bonus now allows you to select a new dragon type whenever you wish.


Focused Dragon Expertise (Mythic, Combat)

Draconic attacks have no effect on you.

Prerequisite: Focused Dragon Expertise.

Benefits: You add your mythic tier to your save bonus against a dragon’s fear and breath weapon. You gain improved evasion against a dragon’s extraordinary or supernatural abilities; if you already have improved evasion, you instead take only a reduced effect on a failed Fortitude or Will save against dragons’ extraordinary or supernatural abilities.


Frightful Suggestion (Mythic)

You can break the will of creatures that are frightened by you.

Prerequisite: Frightful Suggestion.

Benefit: Instead of making a suggestion, you may use dominate person on a creature affected by your frightful presence. The Will save DC is the same as that for your frightful presence ability. An opponent who succeeds at its saving throw removes the effect of the frightful presence and is immune to your frightful presence for 24 hours.


Hunter of the Dark Dragon (Mythic)

You fight ruthlessly and mercilessly against metallic dragons.

Prerequisite: Dark Dragon Hunter.

Benefit: You add ½ your mythic tier (minimum 1) to your favored enemy bonus against metallic dragons. This stack with the bonus granted by the non-mythic Hunter of the Dark Dragon feat.


Inured to Draconic Majesty (Mythic)

You can talk with dragons as their equal, without succumbing to their presence.

Prerequisite: Inured to Draconic Majesty.

Benefits: You add your mythic tier to your save bonus against extraordinary or supernatural feat effects. If a failed saving throw against an extraordinary or supernatural fear effect would make you frightened, you instead don’t suffer any effect; and if a failed saving throw would make you panicked, you are instead shaken.

New Mythic Draconic Feats, Part 1

Feats for dragons and dragon-themes characters, from various sources, in their mythic versions.

This post already appeared for patrons only on my Patreon page. If you wish to see stuff in advance and have access to other rewards, please consider donating!


Ancient Draconic (Mythic)

Every spell is a draconic spell when you cast it.

Prerequisite: Ancient Draconic.

Benefits: Every spell you cast (even non-arcane spells) benefits from the Ancient Draconic feat. You add ½ your mythic tier (minimum 1) to the bonus on caster level check from Ancient Draconic. If you speak Draconic when casting a language-dependent spell, the spell gains the draconic descriptor and the bonus applies to the spell’s save DC too.


Draconic Defender (Mythic)

You can shield your allies with your body as if you were bigger than you actually are.

Prerequisite: Draconic Defender.

Benefit: You can extend the benefits from Draconic Defender to a number of allies equal to ½ your mythic tier (minimum 1). Your reach is calculated as if you were one size bigger for the Draconic Defender feat’s purposes.


Dragon Discipline (Mythic)

Mind-clouding magic has barely any effect on your draconic majesty.

Prerequisite: Dragon Discipline.

Benefit: You gain a bonus equal to your mythic tier on your new saving throw against a mind-affecting enchantment or necromancy effect. If you expend one use of mythic power, you gain an additional attempt at your saving throw should you fail at the second one, applying the same bonus.


Dragon Gold Crown (Mythic)

Your draconic trophy grants you both the power and majesty of a dragon.

Prerequisite: Dragon Gold Crown.

Benefit: The trophy you craft grants you a Strength bonus equal to its Charisma bonus.


Dragon Shot (Combat, Grit, Mythic)

Your energy shots scare those who are hit.

Prerequisite: Dragon Shot.

Benefit: A creature that is hit by a shot converted into energy must attempt a Will saving throw or be also shaken for 1d6 rounds. The save DC is 10 + ½ your character level + your Charisma bonus. If a creature is already shaken, its fear level cannot be increased by this effect.


Dragoncrafting (Mythic)

You are an unparalleled artisan when creating items from dragon bodies.

Prerequisite: Dragon Crafting.

Benefit: You add 100 gp per your mythic tier to the dragoncraft items value you can produce in 1 hour. You also add your mythic tier as a bonus on Heal checks made to gather specimens from a dragon’s corpse.


Dragonheart (Mythic)

You stole the secrets of dragons, and now they have no power over you.

Prerequisite: Dragonheart.

Benefits: You add your mythic tier to the bonuses granted by the Dragonheart feat. If you expend one use of mythic power, you can grant these bonuses also to one ally within 10 feet for 1 minute.
